To the Journal editor:

An excellent pair of articles by Journal Staff Writer Cecilia Brown on electric vehicles in The Mining Journal on July 29. This is the information that our member of Congress, Rep. Jack Bergman, R-Watersmeet, needs to see. It pays to cut carbon, and we must do that right rapidly in order to avoid unthinkably devastating climate change.

Please, if you have not already, urge him to support legislation that would encourage a market-based, revenue-neutral, transition to a low carbon future.
